Double Gameweek 22 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues at 14:00 GMT on Sunday, as Nottingham Forest host Leeds United at The City Ground.

This is, of course, the first of Leeds’ two matches, with a trip to Old Trafford to follow on Wednesday.

Steve Cooper makes four changes from the side that drew 1-1 at Bournemouth last time out, with Keylor Navas coming in for his debut.

Neco Williams, Scott McKenna and Danilo also start, as Wayne Hennessey, Serge Aurier, Joe Worrall and Ryan Yates drop out.

That means Morgan Gibbs-White surprisingly recovers from injury to feature in attack alongside Brennan Johnson and Chris Wood.

As for the visitors, Jesse Marsch makes three alterations from Gameweek 21, but new loan signing Weston McKennie has to settle for a place on the bench.

Robin Koch is suspended after accumulating five yellow cards so Liam Cooper comes in at the back, while further forward, Luis Sinisterra and Patrick Bamford replace Brenden Aaronson and the injured Rodrigo, who is out for two months because of an ankle injury.

Wilfried Gnonto, meanwhile, is handed another start, with his ownership in the top 100k rising to 4.62%.

GAMEWEEK 22 LINE-UPS

Nottingham Forest XI: Navas, Williams, Boly, McKenna, Lodi, Danilo, Freuler, Mangala, Gibbs-White, Johnson, Wood

Subs: Hennessey, Worrall, Colback, Lingard, Surridge, Aurier, Scarpa, Ayew, Felipe

Leeds United XI: Meslier, Ayling, Cooper, Wober, Struijk, Adams, Roca, Sinisterra, Gnonto, Harrison, Bamford

Subs: Robles, Firpo, Aaronson, Summerville, Rutter, Kristensen, McKennie, Greenwood, Joseph

    City think they can play two up front against Spurs, and weaken their midfield

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Worked last time

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Don't think Pep has played 2 up top since he tried it a few months back maybe twice, Alvarez doesn't really play as a CF in this system

  2. El Presidente

    Pep Guardiola doing everything in his power to help his pal Arteta...

    1. Biggsy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Could be that. Could be that he's realised he's playing Spurs....

    2. acidicleo
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      i doubt this too!!

  3. Riverside Red
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Is Walker now nailed....

    1. MBK 42
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Only Ederson is nailed for City

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        And Haaland

    2. Fintroy
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Ederson nailed, even if he was dead, Harland also (until champs league kicks in) and also Pep's new obsession Rico Lewis

    Now then ,that makes the kdb/mahrez debate even worse for nxt gw. .?

    1. putana
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      i was always going to go mahrez over kdb, but may avoid both

      1. camarozz
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Would u stick with Mudryk and Bruno as I have now ?

    2. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Think I will have both

  5. fantasist
    • 15 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    If Alvarez does well today, double up on City forwards would be a good differential move for DGW

    1. WATERMELONS
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Was thinking that

    2. Fintroy
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      No it wouldn't, can you really trust Pep to play a player twice in a DGW?....simple answer NO, unless your surname is Ederson

      1. fantasist
        • 15 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        If every player is at risk of rotation, doesn't that make all options equal. They're playing twice, you have to pick someone.

        1. The Big Fella
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          But it doesn't have to be from that team

          1. fantasist
            • 15 Years
            2 years, 11 months ago

            Lol true but this is regarding City options for the DGW. Alvarez would be a differential with most opting for a midfield like Mahrez. Not doubling up on fwds.

    Looking ahead to next week

    A) Ake/Akanji -4 and Shaw first sub
    B) Play Shaw

    1. WATERMELONS
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Play Shaw

  7. WATERMELONS
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Seeing the Man City Line Up I am honestly confused on who to bring in for next few.

    I have Haaland + KDB.

    Mahrez obvious pick.

    Fancy their defence but who? Who is most nailed?

    Akanji
    Ake
    Lewis

    ??

    1. The Big Fella
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Ake for me, then Lewis. I don't think Kev is nailed. Mahrez probably is though.

      1. Bushwhacker
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Probably the truest and most absurd statement ever uttered.

        1. The Big Fella
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 11 months ago

          How times have changed eh?

  8. WATERMELONS
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    I am actually thinking 3x Man City is not the way to manage the blank GW25 anymore.

    We should target sure starters of upwardly mobile teams.

    I am thinking of Wolves defence. Everton defence. And perhaps even Leicester midfield.

    Anyone with me?

    1. The Big Fella
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Shhhhh

    2. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      I have Bueno. The Wolves shut out Liverpool yesterday, and of course, he didn't play.

      1. WATERMELONS
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 11 months ago

        Dawson in the one

  9. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    I think a key factor is living with a sub 8m rotation risk over a 12m plus one

  10. Aksekladden
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Anybody know what happened with Bueno yesterday? Was counting on him for by BB23.

    1. WATERMELONS
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      me too.. worrying

    2. BeaversWithAttitude
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Yah, not too reassuring!

  11. Digital-Real
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    This has the hallmarks of Spurs goal on the break

  12. GOTHAM City F.C.
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Kane

  13. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Yes Kane!!!

  14. BeaversWithAttitude
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Go on, Harry! x

  15. RICICLE
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Get in Kane!!!!!!!!!!

  16. Bushwhacker
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Anything better than seeing Pep’s smugness wiped off his face. Even if temporally?

    1. Bada Bing
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 11 months ago

      Pep seems to be obsessed with showing how much smarter than everybody else he is with his weird lineups and formations.

  17. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    KDB sub just got a bit more unlikely

  18. Fintroy
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    ha ha Pep, why not just play your best team?...... thought he would have learnt after the 2021 Champs League Final....so funny

  19. Superflymonk
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    Kane is something else this season! Cannot believe some content creators still preferring Salah or KDB to him, especially after how consistent he's been through this season.

  20. BeaversWithAttitude
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    53-year-old record broken! Nice one, Harry!

  21. BeaversWithAttitude
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 11 months ago

    What a goal that would have been! Get in, Mahrez!
